   BLUE NOTES FOR TUESDAY, JUNE 5, 2007

 

TICKETS: Yes, there are lots left.  Buy this evening from Anne Harkonen before the rehearsal or during the break.

 

Things for us to remember about this coming weekend:

**Friday afternoon and early on Sunday afternoon are good opportunities for us to     make      important contributions by helping with the set-up.  And after the concert on Sunday? Of course!

**Eating or drinking anything except water in the sanctuary on either Saturday or   Sunday is taboo.

**Reeking  of perfume, cologne, or after shave on Sunday is not a good idea.

**Our rehearsal on Saturday begins sharply at 10:00 A.M. and is scheduled to last   until 2:00 P.M.

**At the Saturday rehearsal, Donald will give us our call time for Sunday.

**Saturday’s rehearsal is the last opportunity to buy tickets at the advance price.

 

Alicia Resnick and Joan Merchan poured juice for us last Tuesday; tonight, Laura Graedel and Wylie Crawford close our juice season.  Thanks to them—and to all the juice providers and pourers and drinkers and payers for quenching our thirst and increasing our treasury during the past nine months.

 

If you know of anyone who should be given a complimentary ticket, please let Len Barker know this evening.

 

Donations? They’re always welcome.

 

Last evening, the weekly Carillon Concert Series began at the Chicago Botanic Garden.  On each Monday evening between then and August 27, the bells will begin playing at 7:00 P.M.—with a tour and demonstration of the carillon available at 5:30.  Picnickers are invited to bring their own baskets or purchase their al fresco suppers at the Evening Grille.  Wylie Crawford takes his turn on July 10, with a program including works by Bach and Handel—and “Music from the Cinema.” For more information about Wylie, the carillon, and the Garden concert series, last Sunday’s Metro section of the Tribune has it.

 

No Pain, No Gain???? Definitely NOT true when you use Jewel Shop and Share slips. A great gain for NSCS without causing you any pain. Just think of the 5 % that we'll get from our total shopping amount at Jewel on June 11, 12 and 13. No limitation!  A painless way to do good. Take as many slips as you want. Give them to neighbors and friends. They’ll love you for it--and respect you as well. Here are a couple of other suggestions: Plan your shopping trip early. Make notes on the back of the slips, which are intentionally left blank just for that purpose. Write down all the good stuff you need for the next few weeks and for your July 4 celebration, such as charcoal, brats, beer, shrimp, lobster, fine wines, and of course lots of Pepto Bismol. You get the picture!? Thanks for shopping and for supporting NSCS. Mr. and Mrs. Jewel and Harry Vroegh wish you a great summer.
